I have a little collection of pics from recent games. Not sure I'll get them attached to one post - let's see!

1. Now I think that's what you call a fast worker - at least he would be if he got that prop moving!!

A couple more for you:

1. Driving the tractor in that paddock would be a thrill - and getting the train up that line would be a challenge too!

ParadigmShifter · Feb 04, 2009, 07:18 PM

You can work desert if it has commerce (incense for example), or hammers (watermill on riverside after global warming say).

I got some event on a mountain once and I could work that for a whopping 1 commerce

djvandrake · Feb 04, 2009, 10:38 PM

Yeah, but I'd much rather run a specialist than work a desert tile for a measly two commerce. Why couldn't this event hit the iron mine or the floodplain? That would have been sweet.

Hey, I should be the one who circumnavigates the globe. Caravels are not invented yet. Life's not fair.

Alrin Kharr · Feb 07, 2009, 09:19 AM

This isn't really a "funny" screenshot per se, but rather just a picture of something unusual that I have never really seen before.

It's from my most recent game, my first "real" attempt at Emperor (i.e. no reloading saves, no use whatsoever of World Builder), and as such I was playing as Caesar to compensate a little for the increased difficulty. I chose the Fractal map script (the more recently updated one from this site, not the ship version), and as the game went along and I met all the other civs fairly quickly, I soon thought "Great, it generated a Pangaea map script...I think this is gonna be a little too easy..." Then, at 5 BC I get the message that Washington has circumnavigated the globe! Eventually I research Paper and trade maps with everyone, and I discover...not only is this map Pangaea, the continent wraps completely around the world in a horizontal ring!

I know Fractal can produce some interesting and unusual maptypes, but I've never seen any map script produce something quite like this before!

MadmanOfALeader · Feb 07, 2009, 10:03 AM

Hmm... I wonder what would be the effect of two oceans being almost completely cut off from each other.

That must make canals hard to travel, as the currents would be really strong.

ruff_hi · Feb 08, 2009, 06:32 AM

one of my workers thinks he is a lemming - you know, the digger variety ...

Turquoiside · Feb 08, 2009, 08:34 AM

1. A little flippiant are we? So, you leave the strongest nation in the world for their weaker enemy?
2. The Ghandi paradox! He is a vassal of a person who is at war with someone he is at peace with!

Wow, you have some serious power there, being the person to control both canal opportunities. Everyone else essentially will have their navy split in two (top ocean and bottom ocean), while you can do both.

BakingTheArt · Feb 09, 2009, 01:46 AM

I just played (well, looked at and immediately regenerated...) a tectonics map that looked exactly like that. Then I generated a map with a continent going from top to bottom. With no canal opportunity.
